Happy Anniversary to RFA/MEA! Breakfast at Hilton
restaurant – brown hard boiled eggs! – yay! I like this hotel – open,
modern, nice fixtures and lighting, cool walkways over the shopping/train
concourse below and the people are hospitable. Connected to airport via
enclosed bridge = short walk. We had access to the Hilton fitness center
– lite strength training, stretching, foam roller, abdominals, core &
stability work – nice locker room, and sauna (nudity allowed – double yay!)
Stored our carry-ons and strolled around the airport shopping area (outside
security) a bit and a Starbucks. Checked out of hotel. We already had
our boarding passes, went through security – duty free shopping uneventful –
I was looking for new Louis Vuitton series with Christian Louboutin collaborating on the logo but no luck - only available in the LV boutiques. Picked up flavored salt from Ibiza for
my colleagues who covered for me (except I ended up working a total of 2
days!). Our incoming flight from SFO was 2 hours late, so our scheduled
5:25 PM flight left at 7 PM. Oh well, no big deal – in Lutfthansa Lounge –
just means we get in later – and back to work tomorrow with a 9 AM meeting . .
. . Slept a few hours on the plane after dinner.
I read 3 books over vacation (and started #4) = that makes
it a real vacation! Adultery by Paulo Coelho, The Days of Abandonment by Elena Ferrante, and The Children Wait by
Ian McEwan.
